At the end of Nov. 2010, I received an envelope from the Claim Office of KAREN FIXICO, from the Canadian Side of Niagra Falls. There was a CASHIER"S CHECK in the amount of $3, 940.00 enclosed with the letter. The check was from a bank called the "CARTER BANK & TRUST". I was informed that I was the winner of $55K and that I was to deposite the enclosed check, which was a deduction amount for taxes. I was to use this for the deduction of taxes, and what was left over after taxes was to be mine. I was then instructed to give a call to a man named DOM ( which sounds fake), and he would give me further instructions on what to do in order to recieve the so called 55K. Even the name of FIXICO sounds fake. I decided that in the coming week, I will contact Carter Bank & Trust, and speak with the person in charge, and I will try to get to the bottom of this. If this was a real cashier's check, wouldn't the address information be on the check under the posted name of the bank? Secondly, the contact names do not sound realistic, and how could I have won 55k, when I never participated in any drawings form the named large businesses of companys. This is an immoral thing to pull on inocent working people and senior citizens, that it should be stopped, and there should be arrests mad on those that pull these stunts. Don't you agree? I should note that I opened this letter on March 25, 2011, qwhile going through junk mail. This is exactly what it is. PLANE JUNK!!! I also posted this warning of the scam on Face Book. Thank you or reading this complaint. Guy G. Cenname of Los NAgeles, Ca. 90027-USA.
